West Hills sits where the San Fernando Valley meets open space - larger lots on the western edge, trail access, and the Bell Canyon gate just across the county line.
Boundaries
West Hills became its own recognized neighborhood (split from western Canoga Park) starting in 1987. Per the West Hills Neighborhood Council, it runs roughly Nordhoff Street (north) to Victory Boulevard (south), with the LA city/county line to the west and Shoup/Topanga Canyon to the east. Valley Circle Boulevard is the western spine; just west, across the line, is the gated Bell Canyon community (in Ventura County's Simi Hills - bordering West Hills, not part of it). Open space includes El Escorpion Park and the Upper Las Virgenes Canyon Open Space Preserve.
